Why Are Streetlights Turning Purple?!

Ever noticed streetlights glowing purple instead of white? Turns out, it’s not a new city vibe—it's a weird LED glitch! The yellow coating on some LEDs is breaking down, letting the blue light shine through and giving us that eerie lavender glow. It’s happened in over 30 states and even in Canada and Ireland. While it looks cool, it can mess with visibility and safety. Manufacturers are swapping out the faulty lights, but it’s wild how a tiny tech flaw can change the whole nighttime vibe! #Streetlights #LEDs #TechFail #Transportation
